Ep 101: How to Start Over Without Starting From Scratch

Episode 101 ✨How to Start Over Without Starting From Scratch

In this episode, Dorothy opens the door to a fresh new chapter, both in her work and her life. After 100 episodes of growth and reflection, Episode 101 marks a gentle evolution: a conversation about beginnings, endings, and the space in between.

You’ll learn why “starting over” is rarely about wiping the slate clean. Dorothy shares how nervous-system safety, self-trust, and aligned action make new beginnings sustainable, and how returning to what once worked can coexist with redefining what’s true now.

In This Episode:

  • Why every “fresh start” carries the wisdom of what came before

     

  • How to close energetic doors that never fully shut

     

  • Returning vs redefining — knowing which season you’re in

     

  • What to do when resistance shows up

  •  How I'm shifting from “fixing” to “frequency” from proving to peace

  • Begin again in alignment, not pressure

Because you’re never truly starting from scratch.  

 

Episode Highlights:

  • “You’re allowed to close a chapter without crossing every t or dotting every i."

  • “Sometimes expansion looks like doing more. Other times, it’s creating more space to breathe.”

  • “Beginning again can sound empowering, but in real life it can also feel heavy, confusing, sad, or even scary.”

  • “You’re never truly starting over. Every new beginning carries the wisdom of what came before.”
